Should I be Afraid of Hypnosis?

Have you ever been so involved with a task where you have lost track of time?

Have you ever been driving on a long trip and suddenly realized that you were thinking of something else for the previous 30 minutes?

Have you ever been engaged in exercise and “zoned out” for a period of time, not remembering what happened in the interval?

If so, you experienced hypnosis.

Hypnosis is a pleasant, natural state of physical and mental relaxation which is naturally experienced on a daily basis by everyone.

Can you imagine the horror of getting a call from the CEO of a large company, inquiring about your speaking services, and after directing them to your website, discovering that your website is inactive? In many cases, that might be enough to blow the deal… it’s a fast paced world, and people just aren’t willing to waste much time anymore; there are too many other speakers out there waiting for the call!

It doesn’t have to have all of the expensive bells and whistles to be effective, but it does need to cover all of the basics, and most importantly, it has to always be up and running.

The word, “Hypnosis” for most conjures up images of Svengali controlling one with a pendant or the movie–the Manchurian Candidate, or they remember a stage show where they saw a subject on stage quacking like a duck and not remembering anything after opening his/her eyes. All are images that leave one leery of hypnosis!

Even though the word, hypnosis, was not used at the time, Anton Mesmer in the 1700’s is credited with the first use of hypnosis. Most of Mesmer’s patients at that time in history suffered from “Hysteria.” He would have them stand in a tub of water with metal rods. As they held onto the rods, he’d wave his wand resulting in the patients experiencing a cathartic reaction during which their “hysteria” was cured.

Black and White. Good and Bad. Positive and Negative. No in-betweens. Choose one or choose nothing at all. Same way goes for our subconscious. The messages we tell ourselves assert the way we tend to live our life.

Having a goal or a dream is normal for people. Wanting to be successful in a certain career is determined through the way we act and think.

A plain negative idea can turn into a problem, which can lead into the demise of your dreams.

We all want to lose weight, be healthier, look great in clothing (and look good without clothes on, too), be attractive to ourselves, our mates and other people.

Yet, more and more Americans are not only overweight, we’re obese. Our children are also headed down the wrong road, they are getting more obese every day.
